"Shared" Mode???

Why do some of my Excel Workbooks open in "Shared" mode when I am the only
user? How can I prevent Shared mode?

Thanks,

Keith

Hi Keith,
If you turn on Tracking you also turn on Shared.
To turn off
Tools, protection, protect and share workbook, (uncheck) share workbook
Tools, sharing, (uncheck) allow change by more than 1 user...
Be sure to save the workbook or nothing will change.
